I had Endo and kept having to go back to remove cysts over and over again...I had no idea about anything...just trusted my doc to do the right thing...well here I am ...Had the hysterectomy the Dr said I had to have to feel better and still feel horrible and crazy, ugly and 60 lbs heavier... Finally with the appropriate lab work they finally diagnosed me with Hashimotos (Which by the way has almost the exact symptoms as Menopause,PMS and endometriosis),then after the fact I find out the thyroid medicines and the hormone replacement meds are binding with one another and now neither is working the way they should be!!! Make sure they do the appropriate lab tests....T3,T4,Reverse T3,TSH,peroxidase and thyroglobulin.3 and an antibody test BEFORE getting body parts removed. My compounding pharmacists is actually the one that took one look at me and saw that something was wrong with me and told me to have my Dr. run the above tests...Duhhhh!! I am sorry for my anger, but before, I was pretty, in shape (105 lbs), happy and energetic, now I feel tired, hopeless, passionless, very, very sad and I still feel as if everyone thinks I am crazy and lazy.
Remember, WE are the best judge of how we are feeling and we have the right to ask questions...I wish I had known that before they tore me apart. If anyone has any advice on finding doctors that actually know what they are doing please tell me and everyone else on these message boards.
Something has got to be done about being properly diagnosed and treated!
Good luck to you all
